Prior to 1932, road maintenance and construction in Virginia were largely the responsibility of the individual county governments. Bridge construction projects, based on local requirements, formed a natural part of these activities. Local responsibility very often resulted in a rich variety of bridge designs built by an equally diverse group of bri
